Seville - Ronda - Granada

SEVILLE
Checked out my hostel 0730hr and go for breakfast at Bar El Comercio. 
After breakfast and took a tram (1.20eur) in Plaza Nueva to Plaza San Sebastian.
 JAMON SANDWICH (4eur)
 1/2 portion CHURROS (1.20eur)
This is very similar like the youtiao we had in home.
  HOT CHOCOLATE (2eur)


SAN SEBASTIAN BUS STATION
0930hr, took Los Amarillos Bus (12.70eur) to Ronda.
Journey: 1hr45mins

I bought the ticket 2 days ago, there are limited trip per day from Seville. So buy the ticket 1-2 days earlier if you had confirmed the itinerary. Their website stated 0930hr bus will arrive at 1045hr is incorrect, we only reached 1115hr.

 RONDA
Reached 1115hr, leave my luggage in the bus station. Rate charged by per hour basis.
PLAZA DE TOROS (Bull Ring)
Entry: 7eur




PUENTE NUEVO BRIDGE
EL TAJO

ALAMEDA DEL TAJO
PLAZA DUQESA DE PARCENT
SHOPPING STREET
I had initially bought bus ticket to Malaga then to Granada but last minute changed my plan and buy another train ticket to Granada directly from Ronda. Granada train station is under renovation this time and they had arranged bus transfer and the journey went very smoothly.

RONDA TRAIN STATION
Ronda to Granada
Journey: 2hr30mins
Paid additional 20.10eur and I can reached Granada 4hrs earlier.
GRANADA
Reached Granada train station at 1610hr and took a cab (8eur +2 eur tips) to my hostal. Granada is one of the city that offers free tapas. Every drink you ordered they will give you a tapa. And Alhambra is anther attraction not to be missed! Book at least 40 days in advance. I had booked 55 days in advance and the ticket was already 70-80% sold out.

HOSTAL RODRI
57eur for 2 nights
Very comfortable and extremely clean room. Toiletries, hair dryer all included.




THE GRANADA CATHEDRAL
 

I had booked Alhambra ticket months in advance and I need to pick up the ticket at La Caixa ATM.
Had went to the Tienda de La Alhambra but the Queue is too long.
CARRERA DEL DARRO

LOS DIAMANTES
They have 3 outlets here, served seafood Tapas. Come early as all of their outlet will be packed in the late afternoon.


FRIED CLAMS
Good!
DEEP FRIED FISH NUGGETS
DEEP FRIED SHRIMPS (12eur) half portion
This is seriously good, best with beer.



CALLE NAVAS
Street full of restaurants and bars.
The first llaollao I saw in Spain.

Medium + 3 topping (3.20eur)
Bought 4 of these hand painted saucer. 1.95eur each
